I'm Minmatar, but all I fly are Gallente ships (with the exception of the Vigil, for its wonderful speed, and maybe the Rifter, I like that one too). I also have a Vexor, and a Brutix. I fly my Vexor all the time, but I think it needs a bit of a drone oriented beefing. Maybe a medium drone damage bonus? I love my Thorax, but I think it is way out of its place. That 200 m3 drone bay more belongs on the Brutix, and the Brutixs' 100 m3 belongs on the Thorax. Drones are the Gallentes thing, and having a battlecruiser with that small of a drone bay is pertty sad. Even 150 or 175 would be wonderful. As I have never flown any of the T2 cruisers or the faction Thorax, I don't know about them. Never really engaged in combat in my Thorax either, most of my experience is from the rats. But one thing is for sure, the Thorax goes beyond its bounds by being the race drone carrier, where the Vexor should have its place.

Also, speaking of drone carriers, I think the Arbitrator needs some beef too! Would love to have one, but my Vexor seems to out-class it in every way.

My final conclusion? I'd like to see the Thorax drone bay reduced to 100, Brutix increased between 150-200, and the Vexor needs some kind of a drone bonus. But wouldn't that also mean the Dominix would need one aswell? I have one of those too, and it's a sexy beast. Maybe just increasing the medium-ranged capeabilities of the Vexor would be good to bring the guns on par with a nice average drone range, like 35 km. No no, that'd be too much! Perhaps a drone speed bonus? Maybe a drone bay increasee to 170 (and not 175! that extra five m3 makes a big difference between medium and heavy drones).

It's dangerous ground we tread on with this. But the Thorax's drone bay is pretty big.

(and yes, I already know the Dominix and Vexor have drone bonuses. I was assuming this was obvious, but I started worrying after I had posted that someone would be a smartass)
